12 ounce bottle thanks to sethdude! Hazy orange, large foamy tan head, good retention. Aroma of orange, grapefruit, pale malt, hints of pine. The taste is earth, pine, grapefruit, pale malt. Medium bodied, mild lingering bitterness.

12oz bottle, courtesy of gregwilsonstl, pours with a crystal clear copper body that has gold hues and supports a thin full off white head of foam. The modest aroma offers up grapefruit and floral hops with a sliver of malts and biscuit to crystal malts in the background. The taste delivers a nice bitter floral hop and citrusy grapefruit hop sensation to start with and then moving into lightly malt sweetened hops and a bit of grassy and herbal like hoppiness. Into the finish it picks up a slight cracker sensation from time to time. Pretty nice.

Bottle. Aroma is moderately strong piney, resinous hops. Appearance is nice, clear, golden yellow with attractive sparkle and frothy 2 finger-width off-white head with decent retention and minimal lacing. Taste is strong pleasantly moderate bitter balanced with minimal sweet malt backbone. Palate is light to medium bodied with thick and slightly slick texture. Average carbonation and long minimally bitter finish. Overall, a pleasant surprise--not loaded with complexity but not a meek aroma or taste and nice to look at and mouth feel.

Pour is a clear copper with a small white head. Aroma is a ok hop with a large sweet caramel malt. Flavor is a better hop profile then then aroma. Finish is gone in a second with no real aftertaste. Decent hop in the flavor but much too bland and watery.
